oh cool md, I don't know the first...but the second is a bela iii of hungary, late 12th century coin. the obverse shows the virgin with baby christ and a scepter, the reverse is bela iii and stephen iii (another hungarian king).

here's mine..

I can't help either on the first one, I've not seen one like that before. Chris is correct on the second being Bela III. Don't see too many of these.

And we have our answer to the first coin, thanks to this recent thread of yours. It's also Hungarian.
